Great horror story - not just about the monsters that live in our imagination, but the ones we live with in our everyday lives.
Helpful Score: 3
Very good book about 3 childhood friends who deal with family troubles as well as a ghoul who...well you just have to read the book. It is slow in some parts but over all, kept me up late at night for about a week until I finished it. Highly recommended.

This was one of the best horror novels I have read. I have read and disliked other Brian Keene novels that dealt with a different subject matter, but this was an entirely different experience. Mr. Keene, in all his novels, shows a remarkable knowledge of Christian religion and folk mythology; in this book he ties them together with human experience in a unique and interesting way. I felt the ending was a bit contrived, but it didn't destroy the story for me. This is a great read.

Wow, Best of Keene! I spent many summers as a youth bored with nothing to do but these three boys summer will be unforgettable for me. I'm still shaking!
